Legend Valve 450-010 3 inch Copper 90 Degree Elbow Coupling

Copper 90° Elbow for 3-inch pipe

This Legend Valve copper fitting joins two 3-inch pipes at a right angle using sweat connections on both ends. It is intended for plumbers and contractors who need a durable copper elbow for water supply or heating lines. The 90-degree bend changes flow direction cleanly in residential and commercial copper piping systems.

Sweated joints handle continuous pressure

Once properly soldered, the C x C connections create a permanent, leak-resistant seal that withstands sustained system pressure and temperature cycling. The copper construction resists corrosion from treated water and does not degrade under long-term exposure to hot water circulation. No mechanical joints or gaskets are present to loosen over time.

Clean pipe ends and correct flux prevent leaks

Installation requires cutting the pipe square, deburring, applying flux, and sweating with a torch until solder flows fully around each socket. Insufficient heat or dirty copper are the most common causes of joints that weep or fail pressure tests. The fitting has no threads or compression rings to adjust after soldering.
